This has been the pattern for a while. Lots of reasonable pundits cautioning against reading too much into the dogwhistle while the actual out-and-proud Nazis cheer “One of us! One of us!”

It's a great baby safety tip.

A large glowing baby in a field. A man, in awe, looks upon the baby. The baby says: Listen closely, friend. My time here is short, because there are a lot of bugs and it smells like swamp. Tell them to lay babies down to sleep on their backs, without blankets or pillows, every time. The man replies, Ok! Thanks, Great Baby!

The movie poster for the war movie “Fury” featuring a tank with its crew. In the foreground is Brad Pitt but his head has been replaced with a toon style canine fursuit head. The movie title has been edited to read “Furry”

Thanks to how you've written that, I've learned that if I google apocalyptic-AI-cult-built-around-fanfic-author, google's AI thinks I'm giving it a fiction prompt. So I now have that plot summary, whee. Hey, I was just trying to make sure I was thinking of the same cult, that there isn't a new one.

I don't care if trump makes pardons *rain* on Patel, Kennedy, Hegseth, etc. There still needs to be comprehensive investigation of everything mangled, grafted, embezzled, fumbled, or bungled, even if a lot of it amounts to "Nope, we can't charge <this asshole>, but this is what he did."

Especially hypocritical coming from soi-disant originalists, since the Founding Era discourse around the Fourth Amendment is pretty clearly predicated on the opposite idea—that these agents are apt to run amok & behave abusively, requiring their discretion to be constrained by a neutral magistrate.

I’m seeing people say this means Wells didn’t drown. In about 15% of drownings, there’s no water in the lungs. I’ve reported on people wrongly accused of murder because an elected coroner didn’t understand this. Don’t have an opinion on what happened here. But this itself does not mean homicide.

Nolan Wells’ autopsy found no water in lungs; data was deleted from his phone the day he disappeared, experts say

Shocking new details were revealed during a press conference sharing the results of the state’s autopsy and findings from Nolan Wells’ cellphone.
